Current Employee Current Employee Mr. San Francisco

Advice to law firm management:
It would be nice to have annual reviews and raises based on those reviews instead of the current haphazard way of moving up.

Pros:
The firm is very diverse and has a good mix of people working here. It's not a stuffy place to work and they start you out with pretty good benefits and salary. It's a midsize firm so there is a good balance between work life and home life because it's not a pressured environment.

Cons:
The raises and reviews are few and far between even though they start you off at a good figure. It takes quite a long time to move up and make more money.

Former Employee Former Employee Mr. San Francisco

Advice to law firm management:
The law office does a great job of hiring intelligent and encouraging workers. However, the firm falls short in rewarding their employees with an equal salary to the work performed.

Pros:
The law firm is composed of a group of staff and employees which are intelligent. The staff and employees have created and environment in which there is a sense of encouragement.

Cons:
The law firm has a model that causes competition amongst employees. The amount of work performed by staff and employees is rewarded with low salary.
